Tipps for Instagram 1 - #Hashtag

This post is mainly for everyone who is new on Instagram and everyone who don't know about the use of hashtags.

Tags

If you are new on Instagram and you want to gain likes and followers it is very important to us hashtags. But why should you use tags? When you are new on Instagram, it's hard for other users to see your pictures if you don't tag them. But be careful, you shouldn't misuse this! Just because Instagram allows you to use 30 hashtags in your description, but it doesn't mean that you have to use this much. It's absolutely fine, if you use only a few. Keep in mind that your hashtags should be relevant for your pictures. You can also write tags in a comment below a picture.
What hashtags can you use? If you write a text beneath your photo, you can tag the most important words in it. You can also create a special hashtag that you will use on every pic. Another example for useful tags are places (you can also geotag your pictures) or what camera or app you use. There are also quite a few featured hashtags.

Featured Hashtags

There are many accounts on Instagram that can feature your photography. Most of the time you only have to use their hashtags or tag them. You can find these special hashtags on their profile. Sometimes you have to follow them first. Keep in mind that it may take some time, till you get featured.
Another type for featured tags are those which are used for contests (e.g. #whp from Instagram). The weekend hashtag project (whp) from Instagram is a weekly contest. Every week on Saturday Instagram announce a new hashtag. In every announcement are some criteria your post should fulfil. You have time till Sunday to make and post a photo related to that hashtag. Every post has the chance to be featured the next week. There are a lot of contests like this on Instagram, so keep your eyes open.
And even if you don't get a feature or shoutout, your photo will be seen by many people and you probably gain some likes and follower.
